TOPIC: THE AGELESS GOD

MEMORISE
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. - (Isaiah 40:31)

READ: Luke 1:6-7, 57-58 (KJV)

Luke 1:6-7 (KJV)

6 And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

7 And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.

Luke 1:57-58 (KJV)

57 Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.

58 And her neighbours and her cousins heard how the Lord had shewed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.

MESSAGE

God is unlimited by time, and as such, He doesn't grow old. In Daniel 7:9-10, He is referred to as the Ancient of Days. He existed before the beginning of time and created time in itself. As He doesn't age, it means that His strength never diminishes.

Isaiah 40:28-31 tells us that God is never tired. A young man can wake up in the morning feeling refreshed and strong, but he will be tired by the end of the day and will need to sleep. God, however, can never become tired. In fact, He never sleeps nor slumbers (Psalm 121:4).

As the Ageless God, He is eternally new,
and His mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:23). By His mercies, He can strengthen the weary, bring seemingly dead situations back to life, and restore lost opportunities.

In today's Bible reading, we see the Ageless God at work in the lives of Zachariah and Elisabeth. The couple were well stricken in years and had no hope that they could ever have a child again.

When the Ageless One stepped into their case, however, He made their old bodies become new. Elisabeth received vitality and strength in her womb, and she became pregnant.

No matter how old a thing is, when the Ageless One steps into it, He can make it as good as new. He did it for Sarah when He caused her womb, which was as good as dead (Romans 4:19), to bring forth a child.

If you feel like you cannot be successful because you missed an opportunity in the past, or that you are too old to be fruitful, I pray in the name of Jesus that the Ageless One will visit you today. He will give you a new lease of life and cause you to be fruitful.

Caleb also experienced the ageless power of the Ageless God. At 80 years old, his strength remained as it had been when he was 40 and was sent to spy on the land of Canaan.

An 80-year-old man asked for a mountain because his strength had been preserved (Joshua 14:6-12). Those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength, regardless of how aged they may be.

Beloved, if there is any area in your life where you feel like your strength has been depleted or you cannot bear fruit again, I pray that the Ageless God will renew your vitality and cause you to do the impossible, in Jesus' name.

KEY POINT
The Ageless God can renew the age and strength of those who wait on Him.

TOPIC: HE WILL BRING CALM

MEMORIZE:
"Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness." Isaiah 41:10 (KJV)

BIBLE READING: 1 KINGS 17:8-16
8 And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,

9 Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.

10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.

11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.

12 And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.

13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.

14 For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.

15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.

16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah.

MESSAGE:
In 2022, I travelled to the United Kingdom at a time when the temperature there was over 40 degrees Celsius. When I arrived there, I told my Daddy, "I have travelled to countries in winter, and you brought summer there because I asked You to. This time, it is summer, and the heat is excessive. Can you please cool the temperature down for me?" After I prayed, the temperature where I was dropped from 40 to 28 degrees before the next morning, and throughout my stay there, Daddy kept things cool. If you are experiencing unbearable heat in any area of your life, I pray that my Daddy will make things cool for you, in Jesus' name.

In (2 Kings 6:24-33), things were very heated in Samaria because an enemy king had besieged the land. Food and commodities were really expensive, and the inhabitants of the land could not leave to seek help because the enemy had surrounded them. The economy got so bad that mothers began to eat their children. When the situation got really unbearable, God released His word through Elisha to turn things around. He said that by the next day, Samaria's heated economic situation would become cool and food would become cheap. By the next day, food items that were scarce and expensive became cheap and readily available, and the inhabitants of the nation had more than enough (2 Kings 7:16-17).

The widow of Zarephath was another person who found herself in a heated situation. First of all, her husband died, and then there was a famine in the land, which made life unbearable for her and her son. Things got so bad that she had only one meal left, which she planned to eat with her son and await death. However, my Daddy, who hears the cry of the helpless and knows how to calm heated situations, sent Elijah to her. At the word of the prophet, her last meal became the first of many miraculous meals throughout the famine, as we see in today's Bible reading.

Beloved, do not be anxious or worried if you find yourself in any difficult situation. The same God who makes a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert (Isaiah 43:19) will bring you out of heated situations and establish calm in your life. I pray that God will turn things around for your good in any area of your life where you might have found yourself in a tight corner, in Jesus' name.

PRAYER POINT:
Father, please send help to me and turn around every heated situation in my life for good, in Jesus' name.

When sorrows, like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to know,
It is well, it is well with my soul

CHORUS:
It is well, ... With my soul, ...
It is well, it is well with my soul.

Though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my Helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

CHORUS:

3. My sin o, the bliss of this
glorious thought,
My sin not in part, but the whole,
Is nailed to His cross; and I bear it no more:
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, o my soul.

4. For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live!
If Jordan above me shall roll, No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life,
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.

The sky, not the grave, is our goal:
Oh, triumph of the angel! oh, voice of the Lord!
Blessed hope! Blessed rest of my soul.

HYMNAL 22 - SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER! SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER!
1. Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of Prayer! That calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father's throne Make all my want and wishes
known; In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief, And oft escaped the tempter's snare By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

2. Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! Thy wings shall my petition bear to him whose truth and faithfulness engage the waiting soul to bless; and since he bids me seek his face, believe his word and trust his grace I'll cast on him my every care, and wait for thee, sweet hour prayer.

3. Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! May I'll from mount Pisgah's lofty height, I view my home and take my flight; this robe of flesh I'll drop, and rise to seize the ever lasting prize and shout while passing through the air, farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer.

TOPIC: STRENGTH IS NOT ENOUGH, PART 2

MEMORIZE:
"Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah." Psalm 84:4 (KJV)

BIBLE READING: ISAIAH 40:28-31
28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

MESSAGE:
Yesterday, we saw how Peter fell into temptation because he couldn't keep watch in prayer (Matthew 26:40-43). Prayerlessness is one of the signs that a believer is relying on his or her own strength. Unlike Peter, however, David kept watch day and night in the place of prayer (Psalm 55:17). He often stayed awake at night, spending time with God and meditating on His word (Psalm 63:6, Psalm 119:148). He was so aware of the limitations of his strength that on many occasions in the Bible, he enquired of the Lord to know what He wanted him to do (1 Samuel 23:1-5, 1 Samuel 30:8-9). However, in (2 Samuel 11?), where he obviously didn't enquire of the Lord but rather gave in to lust, he got into a predicament that negatively impacted his lineage (2 Samuel 12:9-12).

Daniel also knew the importance of prayer. He knew how much he needed God in the strange land of Babylon, and the Bible tells us that he prayed thrice daily (Daniel 6:10). Even when a decree was made that nobody should pray to anyone except the king, he was too aware of the limitations of his strength that his first reaction was to open his windows and pray as usual. His response to everything was prayer.

Prayer is so important that the Bible urges us to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17). The moment you don't feel like praying or see the need to pray is actually the time to pray more intently because prayerlessness can leave a believer in a weak state and cause such a believer to lose his or her spiritual vitality. Once the devil douses a believer's spiritual fire, he can ruin him or her. Praying puts us in a posture of humility before God, where we acknowledge that we cannot do anything without Him. It keeps our hearts tender and reminds us of the limitations of our physical strength. When we cultivate a lifestyle of waiting on God in prayer, we renew our strength daily (Isaiah 40:31) and are able to overcome the devil's temptations (Matthew 26:41).

Beloved, how do you respond to life's challenges? Do you always try to solve them with your wisdom and strength first? Do you only run to God when everything you've tried fails? Do not make God a spare wheel in your life, rather, He should always be your first resort. Cultivate the habit of praying without ceasing, and you will live victoriously all the days of your life, in Jesus' name.

KEY POINT:
When you cultivate a lifestyle of prayer, you will tap into the Lord's strength daily.

MEMORIZE:
"Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD." Jeremiah 17:5 (KJV)

BIBLE READING: MATTHEW 26:31-35, 74-75

MATTHEW 26:31-35 (KJV)
31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.

32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.

34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the c**k crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

35 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

MATTHEW 26:74-75
74 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the c**k crew.

75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the c**k crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

MESSAGE:
Luke 5:1-10, Peter did not fail because he wasn't diligent, hardworking, or skilful. He had those characteristics, yet he failed. However, when help came from God, he succeeded. Your strength, skills, connections, and diligence are good, but if the Lord is not supporting you, they cannot make you successful.

Psalm 127:1 says: Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

Except the Lord guides and directs a fellow in his or her decisions, his or her labour will be in vain. Without God's support, a person will look like a fool who doesn't know how to get to the city (Ecclesiastes 10:15). Some young people try to do many things because they think they have the strength to do them. However, the Bible makes us understand that although the glory of the youth is their strength (Proverbs 20:29), they will faint and be weary and utterly fall (Isaiah 40:30). This means that while the strength of the youths can help them achieve some things, it is not enough. It can fail them at some point, but if they wait on the Almighty God, they will be able to soar like eagles.

In today's Bible reading, Peter felt he was strong enough to withstand temptations, yet he failed. His physical strength was not sufficient to sustain him in the day of adversity. His overconfidence in himself showed when he was sleeping instead of praying (Matthew 26:40-43). Believers who rely on their strength in the face of temptation will fail. Many have fallen because they felt they were too prayerful to fall into sin. They believed they were too wise and strong to fall into temptation, but eventually, they let their guard down.

(1 Corinthians 10:12) warns us never to think that we can stand without God's help. People who think in such a manner eventually fall. Today's memory verse tells us that a person who puts his confidence in flesh is cursed. Samson didn't fall the day Delilah called a man to cut off his hair; rather, he started falling the moment he began to trust in his strength. The day a person stops trusting in God is the day his or her downfall begins. I pray that you will never come to a point where you feel you are strong enough to do without God, in Jesus' name.

KEY POINT:
Put all your trust in God alone.
